The Golden Chase

The Golden Chase slot for some reason brings to mind the splendour of Versailles. That is perhaps due to the abundance of shiny gold and the music that even to an amateur like me is reminiscent of baroque. The theme itself, or the subject matter, isn’t the most interesting one, yet STHLM has somehow managed to make it so. Read further details below and find out more about the special features and the reel setup.

Theme

Golden tapestry stretches throughout the background, bringing in the glory and riches within full sight. The music, as mentioned, is classic(not classic slot, but classic like Beethoven) and it works wonders for the themes. The symbols are a combination of riches and playing card ranks, but all of them have received a facelift. 

The look is quite gorgeous and far more complete than most themes that use readily recognizable sources of inspiration. If you want to know how to make a good theme take a look at this slot!

Betting Options and Functions

Betting starts from 0.25 coins and gives gradually increasing values up to a hundred coins per spin. There are no paylines, instead, the game uses 243 ways to win system. This means that the symbols simply need to connect in adjacent reels.

The prizes are quite low and start from 0.16 times your bet, topping out at 40 times your bet. Three to five symbols will result in a win. The major wins will clearly come from the special features; this includes increasing the ways to win into 1024 instead of the 243. 

Features

Every time you land a win the special re-spin feature comes into play. Each re-spin opens up an extra symbol position, with the possibility to open up all five symbol positions if you land five re-spins in a row. This increases the possible ways to pay from 243 to 1024.

Every win also collects a golden feature, deposited on top of the reels as a reminder. Possible add-ons include one to three bonus games, a multiplier of one to three, a special x5 multiplier for a selected symbol, and a wild that will cover one of the reels. Multiple multipliers are added together. These bonus features will come into play if you manage to gain five re-spins, which will reward the player with eight bonus games.

Our Take

The basic wins are low, and not something that will result in significant payouts. However, given that each win has the chance of opening up the road to bonus games, where the real money lays, the spins are definitely still interesting. If you don’t mind chasing bonus features then this STHLM Gaming slot is something that will be of interest to you!
